Chapter 321: Ji Shumei
Jiang Qing originally wanted to tease Ji Chen, but Ji Chen took it seriously.
Seven times in one night, President, is it really good to be so fierce?
On this crazy night, even Jiang Qing couldn't help but sigh, it was really the year of the tiger and wolf.
The next day, both of them got up very late. It wasn't until Xiao Muqing came over and knocked on the door that she was hungry that Jiang Qing had to get up and cook.
Fortunately, there are still some beef jerky and small broken mouths at home that can make her daughter cushion her stomach, Jiang Qing was worried that Ji Chen would be too much in something, so she deliberately stewed chicken soup.
This is the local chicken she bought back from the vegetable market, with ginseng slices and red ginseng slices, it should be enough to replenish Ji Chen's body, right?
Because it was time for school to start, Jiang Qing was busy with Xiao Muqing's school for the past two days. When children go to kindergarten, there are still quite a lot of things. Fortunately, Xiao Muqing was quite well-behaved in the kindergarten, and she was not named by the teacher, so she was finally decent.
As soon as Xiao Muqing went to school, Jiang Qing was idle, and she thought about thinking about opening a dim sum shop before.
Jiang Qing wants to do it alone, but since she wants to do business, she has to think long-term.
She can't be like when she opened a roast chicken shop, not to mention that making pastries is not like selling roast chicken, she has to make it on the same day and sell it on the same day.
Speaking of the roast chicken restaurant, I don't know how Xiaomei and Xiaoqin are now.
Since handing over the roast chicken restaurant she once created to Xiaomei and Xiaoqin to take care of, at the beginning, the two little girls had to report to her almost once a month. After that, she reported it once every six months, and then later, Jiang Qing didn't care about it, she only knew that Xiaomei and Xiaoqin were very busy, but the money in her account was getting more and more year by year.
Therefore, with the money saved by the shares of the roast chicken restaurant in the past few years, Jiang Qing can start a pastry shop. She will not forget the credit of Xiaomei and Xiaoqin, so for the first time, she took the initiative to launch a group video call.
The three of them rarely had time to chat, and after talking for about an hour and a half, Jiang Qing brought the topic to the pastry shop she was about to open.
"Sister, are you going to open a new store again?" Xiaomei thought that Jiang Qing wanted to open another roast chicken restaurant, but when she learned that Jiang Qing wanted to start a pastry business, she was taken aback.
"Yes, so my sister wants to ask you and Xiaoqin, you two, do you want to join?" Jiang Qing is looking at everyone's affection in the past, plus Xiaoqin and Xiaomei have given her a share of red after opening a roast chicken restaurant to make money in the past few years, so I think everyone has money to earn together.
Xiaoqin and Xiaomei do have the idea of expanding their stores, but they are more likely to open chain stores. After all, in a small fishing village, there seem to be two roast chicken restaurants, but in fact there is only one. For so many years, the two have opened a roast chicken restaurant and made not much money, but there is still no problem in supporting their families.
Now that their careers and families are stable, they naturally want to try to go higher.
But Jiang Qing wants to open a pastry shop, which is compared with a roast chicken shop, although they are all for food, but when it comes to marketing methods, they may not be able to do it.
Jiang Qing was not surprised to see Xiaomei and Xiaoqin's hesitant expressions. Regardless of whether Xiaomei and Xiaoqin finally agree to cooperate, the three are still good sisters.
She never thought about forcing anyone.
The reason for this is purely for the sake of sisterhood, and she is not worried about the start-up capital and manpower.
Although finding a partner can reduce the risk, for Jiang Qing, the big deal is that these tens of thousands of yuan are smashed into the water, and with Ji Chen's current company in Huacheng, she is not short of this money.
As a result of the discussion between Xiaoqin and Xiaomei, Xiaoqin stayed alone in the small fishing village to take care of the roast chicken restaurant. As for Xiaomei, because she was two years younger than Xiaoqin, she came to mess with Jiang Qing.
When driving to the airport to pick up Xiaomei, Jiang Qing found that this little girl a few years ago was already very good.
Xiaomei's full name is Ji Shumei, and a year ago, she divorced because she didn't get along with her husband. She and her husband have a son, and originally wanted to fight for the custody of their son, but the man thought that she was a woman, and she had to take care of the business in the store, and she would definitely not be able to do it while being busy making money and taking care of the children at the same time.
Therefore, they gave Xiaomei a sum of money, and this money became the principal of her cooperation with Jiang Qing today.
"What about the business of the roast chicken restaurant?" Jiang Qing asked this question on the way home to pick up Xiaomei.
Xiaomei smiled lightly and said, "Anyway, I discussed with Xiaoqin, in terms of equity, I will transfer five percent, but I have to work hard for her." β
"It's not easy for you either. Jiang Qing was referring to the emotional aspect.
Xiaomei shook her head, looked at the buildings and vehicles outside the window, and said: "Sister, it is a common thing for husband and wife to be incompatible, and now the divorce rate is not low, and there are so many people who divorce every year, not one of them." β
"What are your plans in the future?" Jiang Qing knew that Xiaomei's husband was from the fishing village, and the reason why she wanted to leave the fishing village was probably due to this reason.
Xiaomei exhaled and looked at Jiang Qing with a smile: "Sister, I'll just take a step and see a step." I hope that this time I will come to you, and I can eat and drink spicy food with you. β
"Of course, let's go, my sister will take you to lunch first, and I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for you!" Jiang Qing treated her friends with a generous atmosphere, which was nothing to say.
During the meal, Xiaomei talked about Jiang Qing's current life, and when she learned that Jiang Qing's daughters were in kindergarten, she was almost surprised to close her mouth.
"Sister, your children are so old, why don't I know?" Xiaomei was a little incredulous.
Jiang Qing smiled and glanced at her, "Because you didn't ask." β
"Is Xiao Muqing at home now? When we first met, I didn't have anything to give her as a gift. Xiaomei looked a little cramped.
Jiang Qing waved her hand, "It's just a child, don't break the bank if you need a greeting gift." β
"That's not good, it's all my sister's child, I'm an aunt, I have to show it a little, right?" Xiaomei resolutely asked Jiang Qing to come up with an idea, she had to buy a gift for Xiao Muqing.
Jiang Qing couldn't cry or laugh a little, what Xiao Muqing usually liked, Ji Chen bought it for him, if she really wanted her to say what Xiao Muqing liked, Jiang Qing wouldn't be able to tell for a while.
Moreover, she is so familiar with Xiaomei, where can she let Xiaomei buy gifts?
Xiaomei understood what Jiang Qing meant, and when Jiang Qing took her to visit some interesting places in the flower city, she secretly bought a small item.
Xiaomei bought a zodiac pendant, although the object is small, the price is not low. In order to buy this gift for Xiao Muqing, she was really willing to spend money.
Jiang Qing didn't know it, and took Xiaomei home. When Ji Chen came back from the company, it was not surprising to see Xiaomei's arrival. He knows Xiaoqin and Xiaomei, but he doesn't communicate much with them.
But now he is Jiang Qing's husband, and Xiaomei is Jiang Qing's sister, so she has to say hello no matter what. However, Ji Chen is not a person who talks a lot, and soon he will have nothing to say.
In order not to make the atmosphere embarrassing, he handed over the living room to Jiang Qing, and went to the study to work overtime to deal with the documents.
Xiao Muqing will not come back until tomorrow night, because today their school organized an autumn outing, and after the children called their mother at night, they went to bed early under the teacher's arrangement.
Students like this kind of autumn outing go voluntarily, and the place is determined by the school, because they are worried that some children will miss their mothers, so some parents also go with them in order not to spoil their children's interest, but the expenses are reimbursed by themselves.
Jiang Qing originally wanted to go with Xiao Muqing, but Xiao Mei's arrival made her have to give up this idea. She also wanted to take this opportunity to let Xiao Muqing exercise, this child, if she didn't have her parents by her side, would she learn to deal with some things by herself.
Fortunately, Xiao Muqing did not disappoint Jiang Qing, and when she called at night, the teacher praised her for being sensible.
Jiang Qing suddenly felt that the abduction incident that happened in Beihai City before was not a particularly bad thing, at least, the current Xiao Muqing was indeed much more sensible than children of the same age.
Xiaomei naturally couldn't live in Jiang Qing's house forever, but she wanted to go out to find a house, and Jiang Qing didn't agree. Because Jiang Qing felt that the faΓ§ade of the pastry shop had not yet been decided, during this time, Xiaomei would be safe to live with her.
When the location of the store is determined, when Xiaomei wants to move out and live again, she will definitely not stop her. Because Xiaomei has lived for a while, she has an understanding of the basic situation of Huacheng, and the place to rent a house can be chosen to be a little closer to the store, so it is not easy to get off work every morning and evening.
In fact, Jiang Qing did this, and what she really considered was not these, but that Xiaomei had just divorced and definitely needed someone to accompany her. Xiaomei has no friends and relatives in Huacheng, there is only one sister like her, and she has to take advantage of this time to help Xiaomei get out of that failed marriage.
Fortunately, Ji Chen didn't have any opinions on Jiang Qing's arrangement. Mr. Ji estimates that it is useless to have opinions, who is in charge of this family, he is quite clear in his heart.
And in the following days, in addition to looking for a storefront, Jiang Qing also took Xiaomei to visit a lot of places. Gradually, Xiaomei became much more cheerful than at the beginning.
On the day Xiaomei moved away from Jiang Qing's house, she gave the zodiac pendant as a gift to Xiao Muqing.
As for why it took so long to send it, in fact, Xiaomei couldn't find a suitable opportunity, everyone was under the same roof, she had a very harmonious relationship with Xiao Muqing, and for Xiao Muqing, she regarded Xiao Nizi as her daughter in her heart.
Xiao Muqing was very reluctant to let Xiaomei move out, so Jiang Qing asked Xiaomei to stay. Jiang Qing has already been retained, but Xiaomei has her life and her choices, Jiang Qing will suggest and will not interfere.
And she obviously felt that Xiaomei had indeed let go of those things in the past, and next, Xiaomei and her would devote themselves to the pastry shop.
Xiaomei has seen Jiang Qing's craftsmanship and eats the pastries made by Jiang Qing, Xiaomei has only one word, that is, praise!
Jiang Qing is also confident in her craft, and if she is known for this name, there will definitely be many people who will come to buy pastries.
However, Jiang Qing would not do that.
Because, with the identity and status of the Huacheng Yan family in the local area, Jiang Qing didn't want to bring them any trouble.
